Habitats that feel real

Step into an African savanna where lions, zebras, and giraffes share the same horizon, or wander through a rainforest where gorillas emerge from the greenery. You don’t just see animals here, you feel like you’ve stepped into their world.

Forget zoo-like exhibits

No cages, no fences, just clever design! Think moats, hidden barriers, and natural rock formations. The effect is so convincing, you’ll swear a hippo could just stroll past you (don’t worry, it can’t). The result? You get uninterrupted, safari-style views without ever leaving Valencia.

A living conservation lab

When you buy your Bioparc Valencia tickets, you’re funding breeding programs for endangered species like western lowland gorillas and African elephants. Every euro goes toward protecting habitats and keeping species alive for the next generation.

Learning that sticks

Conservation talks, interactive displays, and the daily “Cycle of Life” show don’t just share facts—they leave you with memorable stories about animal behaviors and the challenges of preserving their habitats.

A day for everyone

Whether it’s kids giggling as lemurs leap overhead, photographers snapping elephants framed by a waterfall, or grandparents strolling shaded paths, Bioparc has something for every age. Everyone leaves a little sunburned, a lot inspired, and very happy.
